Birthday Wishes (to me)

Happy Birthday to me....and it IS my birthday...The big ?

Happy Birthday to me!!

Can’t believe I’m sixty!!

neither can the bumblebee

or that nine foot oak tree.

Too bad if they can’t see

or wish that they could be,

able to escape and flee

from thyme inside the pantry.

Happy Birthday to me...

inside my soul is glee.

Figure out the fantasy

of you, and me as we...

May play nine with Marty,

kayak in the fake sea,

 have some cake and party

as long as it is free.

I prayed my sister Sandy

could be here and be happy..

and celebrate our history

of her, and me, and we.

Happy birthday to me.

I need a cup of coffee,

a little bit serenity

and lots of you and me.

Happy Birthday Allen! What a cool write! Xo. I particularly like, "or wish that they could be, able to escape and flee from thyme inside the pantry." ;-) Hope it was a good one!
